The conclusions tell why the data support or reject the hypothesis.
How do you accept or reject a hypothesis?
Hypothesis is examined very closely to see what it predicts, and the predictions are then rigorously tested. If the predictions are not supported by the results of experiments, the hypothesis is rejected but if they are confirmed, the hypothesis is supported.
What would be the best thing to do if you run an experiment and find out the hypothesis is incorrect?
Reject the hypothesis.
How do scientists decide whether or not to reject or accept a hypothesis?
